        This is what I tried to post btw

        Florida has been working for years to crack down on employers that hire undocumented immigrants. But that presented a problem for businesses in the state that are desperate for workers to fill low-wage and often undesirable jobs.

        Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state legislature have a potential solution: children.

        The state’s legislature on Tuesday advanced a bill that would loosen child labor laws, allowing children as young as 14 years old to work overnight shifts. If the new law is passed, teenagers would be able to work overnight jobs on school days. They are currently prevented from working earlier than 6:30 am or later than 11 pm per state law.

          jones it’s probably the same Mexicans they want to get rid of.

            6 days later

            Mirth completely senseless. Case in point, Botswana which is where the US gets natural diamonds, buys very little from US. So he put that 70% tariff on us. For diamonds the US doesn’t mine.

            Lesotho has a similar rate. They export tons of textiles enabled by the American Growth and Opportunities Act that Bush introduced. So he’s disabling their main export earner that the US helped develop

                Claudius its funny, the upside of all this is that he is severely damaging US influence around the world through these tariffs and cutting USAID. He seems to believe this stuff was done due to benevolence rather than self interest. Its very funny.

                    Isn't that what Mirth's tweet said? 😆
                    Quite worrying if Trump actually thinks that's what tariffs are. Like Claude says, Trump's math will basically conclude that any country not importing that much stuff from USA have a tarriff on them.

                    In Norway's case, the import numbers he's using are also wrong. I'll assume this goes for several countries.

                      When JFK launched USAID, he described it as "a source of strength of us". It was often framed as a way to expand influence in emerging markets ahead of "adversaries". You will definitely see developing countries look to Europe, and BRICS countries for export markets and development assistance. It feels like a war against us

                        Mirth "Reciprocal" tariffs. Lol.

                        People who said Trump's unhinged tariffs talk was just posturing and a negotiation tactic have eggs on their faces now. Can't wait for them to blame Biden and EU when shit hits the fan for the average American.

                          QuincyAbeyie Isn't that what Mirth's tweet said? 😆

                          Yeah you're right, there were so many theories flying around yesterday so thought Mirth was something different!

                            it's always about power and control with this administration. the tariffs are a form of economic blackmail to bring the business world to heel in the short term. make no mistake, this is a short term power play to enforce obedience from corporate america, and by extension the rest of the world. as always, they're running a PR scam is that it's for the longterm good of the country. we'll see how much economic pain his cult will tolerate. if the public start to turn on him, I'd expect him to start a war with iran and declare a national emergency and dictatorial powers

                              Gazza M Agree - it's so patently not about the tariffs themselves because there's no economic view or theory that supports placing blanket tariffs on all your trade partners. Including ones you have a trade surplus with (e,g, Australia/UK)

                                  Mirth aye. congress has the power of the purse, but if you defang congress and the IRS and make revenue collection fall under the purview of the executive in the form of tariffs, that's the whole ball game. and as always they will jingle a shiny set of keys like 'abolish the IRS', which sounds great if you're stupid or greedy. they know how to sell this dogshit to the public
